Letters to Dead Artists

By Faridah Cameron

Art has the capacity to speak to us across time and space. In these eleven letters the writer sets out to reply.

Some of the artists she addresses lived long ago and far away, others overlapped her own lifetime and experience. Remembering encounters with their work, her unguarded thoughts lead her back through childhood in Melbourne, art training in the Northern Territory, research trips to Europe, Japan and Mexico and arts practice in Tasmania.

The letters, which began as an exercise, become a valuable means of self-reflection and creative development.
